Take the Time to Treat Yourself

Get a facial

Hydrafacial can be customized to fit every concern and skin type and requires no recovery time. This treatment is for men and women and only takes approximately 30 to 60 minutes, so you can easily book an appointment between two errands. The starting price is 150$.

Do a cleanse

Renew Life, North America’s #1 digestive care and cleansing company, recently introduced a new collection of cleanses that targets the digestive system, cleaning the body and improving overall gut-health. They provide safe and effective solutions to digestive care issues through natural supplements with no artificial ingredients, colours, preservatives or other unnecessary materials. These all-natural herbal cleansing kits stimulate detoxification of the body’s 7 channels of elimination: the liver, lungs, colon, kidneys, blood, skin, and lymphatic system. The ingredients work synergistically to lighten toxic load and support optimal digestive health. One of the best way to ensure a healthy body is to cleanse 2-4 times a year. Renew Life products are available wherever natural health products are sold. Visit www.renewlife.ca to find a store near you.

Try a new fragrance

Sometimes, you just need to try a new fragrance to feel like a new person. The perfumer Claude André Hébert recently launched five perfumes inspired by emblematic places in Montreal. These creations are available at his new store on Saint-Denis. Working with natural ingredients imported from the city of Grasse, France (a true Mecca of perfumery), he tells olfactory stories that evoke specific characters or places by combining the fragrance to his inspirations.

Grab a cup of tea

Shut off your cellphone, take some time off and enjoy a cup of tea. The tea house Camellia Sinensis is known for the excellence of their teas and the knowledge of their experts. If you are looking for some authentic tea and a place to relax, visit them at one of three Camellia Sinensis locations in Montreal or Quebec City. The calming atmosphere is exactly what you need to decompress.
